Realme V5 specifications and pricing

Realme V5 features a 6.5-inch Full HD+ (2400 x 1080 pixels) resolution display that supports 90Hz high-refresh-rate and is topped by a layer of Gorilla Glass for added protection. It has a punch-hole cutout on the front for the selfie camera which gives a 20:9 aspect ratio to the screen.

The V5 is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 720 5G chipset with an octa-core CPU and Mali0G57 GPU. This is paired with upto 8GB RAM and upto 128GB storage options to choose from. It runs on Realme UI 1.0 which is based on Android 10.

Realme V5 comes with a quad-camera setup on the back that consists of a primary 48MP camera with f/1.8 aperture, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera with 119-degree field-of-view, a 2MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor. The rear cameras are capable of recording in 4K UHD at 30FPS and 1080p at up to 120FPS with support for EIS. On the front, there is a 16MP selfie camera with an f/2.1 aperture, housed within the punch-hole cutout.

The V5 has a side-mounted fingerprint reader and is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery with support for 30W fast charging. Realme claims that the phone can go from 0-100% in 65 minutes.

The Realme V5 starts at CNY 1,499 for the base variant with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage while the 8GB variant is priced at CNY 1,899. This roughly translates to a starting price of around Rs 16,000 in India by direct conversion.
